2022 Ford Kuga Vignale Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · AY72 JOV

This 2022 Ford Kuga has covered 67,788 miles in just four years, averaging nearly 17,000 miles annually. This is significantly higher than the typical private usage, suggesting the vehicle has likely spent a large portion of its life on motorways or in high-frequency commercial service. While high mileage can indicate a well-maintained motorway cruiser, it also accelerates the natural wear rate of drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. The MOT history shows a failed test in September 2025, which was subsequently passed on the same day. The failure points are critical: the rear brake pads were worn below 1.5mm, and the rear brake discs were pitted and scored. This indicates that the vehicle had been driven hard enough to exhaust its braking consumables, or that maintenance had been neglected until the MOT deadline. The tyre wear on the nearside rear, specifically on the outer edge, is a red flag that suggests a potential suspension geometry misalignment or a tracking issue that may have been caused by heavy loading or impact damage. The current condition trend is stable only because the immediate safety failures were rectified to pass the test. However, the rapid consumption of rear brakes and the uneven tyre wear point to a vehicle that has been worked hard. Because this is a PHEV model, the regenerative braking system should typically extend the life of the friction brakes; the fact that these were worn out so quickly suggests either aggressive driving habits or a lack of preventative maintenance.
